Although it was Shrove Tuesday, the cafe didn’t have pancakes on the menu, but soup and focaccia went down a treat. With the excellent weather and the schools being off, the cafe was extra busy and there was no room inside. I had come equipped with insulating layers to sit on against the chill or damp from the outside benches and the sun stayed out. We took in a further walk to Tantallon castle after lunch, past fields with some curlews, then back at the cafe warmed ourselves with a quick drink inside, now a table was available, before taking the bus back into N. Berwick, so we didn’t need to slither back down to the beach and walk back into the wind. The wind was keen and, in mid-February, we were as keen to keep it at our backs.
